    I got the same impression and don't think Hibs wanted to sell to one of their main competitors in Championship.

    Really welcome this, and I'm usually a critical * :fear:.

    Genuinely thought he was one to keep an eye on when he scored that beautiful long distance chip last season. Has looked very decent any time I've seen him since.

    His age and lack of top flight experience doesn't bother me. Some players are just late bloomers. For me, he replaces Turnbull and looks to have far more to his game than the latter did.

    Wait...I thought he's like 19...he's 27 this year. Didn't play at any level of national football. Bemused to say the least.

    Potentially I do. I don't think he's peaked yet. I'm warming to Rodgers & he can definitely bring a player on. In two seasons time I think we'll be looking at a player who could be the backbone of the team.

    Of course I could be wrong, then I'll look like a right * but I'll take that.

    Has * all to do with them, we need association trained players for the CL squad and he is one of the best available to us.

    He's talking about Scott Allan I think.

    Watch this and get over your bemusement. He's a good player. Late bloomer and only recently moved into a central midfield position having gone relatively unnoticed for years as a winger.

    Late bloomer. Can happen sometimes, even with world class players. For instance, Didier Drogba.

    Quite a fairytale story, not even three years ago he was at Ayr United, might even have been part time at that point?now he’s playing for the club that he loves.

    Barry Robson was a year in to a move from Inverness to Dundee Utd when he was 26, and nowhere near international honours.

    Judge each case on its individual merits.

    Maybe that's why Allan was signed but at the time we had Gordon, Mulgrew, Brown, Christie, Armstrong, Mckay Stevens, KT, Mcgregor, Forrest and Griffiths. We didn't really need him for quotas.
